There are really hashed brown pot-

even white and red pine all make ex-

Another place -where the smaller
evergreens are extremely useful is ha
the rock garden- Here they may, be
planted as a massed background, or
used in pockets between the rocks
where their upright formas will break
up the flat monotony of horizontal
strata, and Ilbe low spreading owed

To most ,Canadians all evergreens
are "pine" or "fir" trees, states R. W.
Oliver, Division' of Horticulture, Cen-
tral Experimental Farm, Ottawa, Ont.
The climate of Canada does not al-
low acquaintance wile the broad-lea.v-
ed evergreens of the tTnited S'tates,or
the British Isles: knowledge of the
large group of native Conifers• and
their garden varieties is so limited
that "pine" or "fir" ire much the sim-
plest way of conveying the idea that
a tree keepe its leaves ail winter.
The native conifers and -their horti-
cultural varieties deserve a very
prominent place in gardens. Because
of their dense evergreen foliage they
can be used in mass plantings along
the boundaries to act 4.s windbreaks
and give definite outlines during win-

EIRE HAZARD!!
Your attention is called to the 'danger to life
and property from Christmas decorations, such as
draperies, scenery, cotton to represent snow, etc..
Displays of this nature and the, lighting arrange-
ments in connection thereewithadd greatly to the
ordinary risks of fire.
See that inflammable -material is clear of and
not hung over lighting devices, steam pipes, stove
pipes, electric Light bulbs, etc. See that the electric
circuits are properly fused and not overloaded. Have
all temporary decorations removed as soon as they
have served their purpose. . .
Remember, nothing *can render these 'displays
absolutely safe, and that if accidents are not to mar,
the festive season, constant vigilance and care
be exercised.
